Faith is for the whales!
Yeah, everything about this left a worse and worse taste in my mouth as time was passing. I really wanted to be optimistic about this and look for a salvageable path forward, but taking in the information while going over the JP stream recap, then the livestage happening, then maintenance finishing and finding out the -65% failure that completely botched L0g Sanae's Ability (-65% Effectively Elemental damage instead of 35%, as of this video's upload, still in the game), yeah this is indefensible for me as it stands, and I feel like it probably takes a lot for me to be this critical since I feel like I am fairly easygoing about the game, generally because I enjoy it.
Either way, it's not worth going out of your way to get her. If you want to go for the C5> Flandre/Koishi banners because you like/want those and she spooks you, that's a whole other situation, and at least those two are sparkable like any other Epic unit. Should a player pay for this and decide to MLB this unit, or even max out her Luck which is basically 4 MLBs, I have no sympathy for people for going this hard for a unit with a failed Ability effect. I also heard it costs 40000 Yen or $256 (just over £200 for me) just to MLB her, although correct me if I'm wrong.
So yeah, needless to say she won't be treated like any other unit due to the way she is available, and because of the flaws she has, especially as the kind of unit she is as well as the ridiculous issue with her Ability that makes her so insanely weak when it comes to effective damage. Like in the video, it's just painful to use her and whittle down the enemies' HP. No way do I have the sanity to do a Solo Clear with just her in the Trial Quest Stage, especially like this.
Hmmm are there any pros to go over? I guess as a healer, she is good at staying alive. I guess it's funny how for some reason, she just cannot die at all when it comes to enemies with the God Tag (Passive 1 moment), and I guess her Spell Cards can help keep her Yang ATK up, although none on Skills or Ability is a shame. Spirit Power support looks solid too. I guess the CRIT ATK, Yang DEF and Agility buffs could be good for some people. Bind Removal looks nice although C3 Yukari and many other Healers before are great with it. Paralyze Anomalies...5 off the jump, not the most exciting for her rarity I guess. I don't know. For a unit like this, the standards are set so so high if the game is expecting you to pay up for her, when we already have solid healers like the beloved C3 Yukari, as well as other notable ones like E1 Koakuma, S2 Satori and B3 Toyohime, as well as L80 Mokou and Y5 Tewi for their Bind removal on Skills. I guess L0g Sanae also has decent Killers too with insane Hard Scaling on her LW. Would be nice to try it out on enemies weak to Wood and/or Star without that -65% issue in her Ability. Ha. Ha. Ha.
Other issues are probably her lack of Accuracy outside of some Spell Card bullet lines. HP healing isn't so important in this game compared to one like Reverse: 1999 and Barrier Anomaly Healing doesn't necessarily work with units who benefit from anomalies (although other healers are like this to be fair) and that 9 Turn cooldown Skill that includes Barriers, eh. I mean cool looking Skill I guess, and Yang friends may benefit from it, sure. Eh. I don't know with her.
So yeah, I do genuinely feel bad for people who's favourite character is Sanae. I am apprehensive about the idea of a Sakuya variant getting this treatment because I don't know how I will end up getting her, but they better not do this to Mastermind units. Maybe the White/Shiro Festival units could not only appear on future Epic banners, but also come with a 500 Exchange Point Spark on those same Epic banners. Would that be good enough or would a Rate-UP be necessary? Whatever works, I'm all for something to be in place to salvage this mess, because this isn't acceptable. At least her theme is amazing though.
And yes, I did a little trolling in the video. If they won't take the average player seriously with how they went about L0g Sanae, why should I take L0g Sanae seriously? It's fair game after all. :)
